Anybody have a set for sale? Or parts?
The adjuster cap is cracked and fox doesn’t make parts for 1/2 shafts anymore.

I assume he doesn't have a lathe, I wish I had one, maybe you can contact him and work something out?
I assume it is a pretty simple part.

I have repaired stuff for Bob in the past.
That comment was just my way of saying to him --- "ship it" --- LOL.

It’s a pretty involved piece. The older style used pipe threads and most I’ve seen or had the pleasure to buy are cracked. Fox sells and upgrade kit (all the pieces) and they go to O-rings. The shock isn’t converted but the steel body generally doesn’t crack like the aluminum. Then you have to buy the ORB hose for the new reservoir top on one end and pipe threads on the other for the shock. These are made for a 5/8 shaft but Fox has told me they will work in the 1/2 shafts as well. Pretty sure I have found all
The parts so hopefully it’s all back together soon.

The new adjusters showed up, still waiting for the lines.
Hey CO, I’ll send one to you when I get them all fixed up. For some reason my text messages aren’t going through to you.

Yeah I didn't get any txt messages.
That would be great if you send me a busted one.
I just want to see if I can replicate one of those units. I've never done one of those before and it would be great to try even if I fail.
Failure is an option.
